Frequently asked questions about Damper Inspection
How often must fire/smoke dampers be tested?
NFPA 80 and NFPA 105 require each fire, smoke and combination fire/smoke damper to be tested and inspected one year after installation, then every 4 years — extended to every 6 years in hospitals, provided the hospital's testing program otherwise conforms to NFPA 80/105.
What does the test involve?
The damper is operated through its full cycle — the blade or curtain must close completely (and reopen, where applicable) without binding or obstruction — then reset and restored to its normal position, with the access panel checked for condition and accessibility.
